Part number 146.8141RX, these side cutters feature tapered jaws — only slightly rounded at the tip — distinguishing them from the oval-jaw variants in the Lindstrom RX series, which have more fully rounded tips.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe flush cutting action leaves a practically smooth cut on one side of the material being cut.
